Where is the RGB connector on the ASROCK 970 Pro3?
Frequently Asked Questions - 22 j
Response Notice-Facile

The ASROCK 970 Pro3 does not have an RGB connector. It is an older motherboard based on the AM3+ socket for AMD processors, and it does not include RGB lighting functionality.

The available management connectors on this motherboard are:

  • CPU_FAN1 (4 pins) - Main CPU fan
  • CPU_FAN2 (3 pins) - Secondary CPU fan
  • CHA_FAN1 (4 pins) - Main chassis fan
  • CHA_FAN2 (3 pins) - Secondary chassis fan
  • PWR_FAN1 (3 pins) - Power supply fan

If you want to add RGB lighting to your system, you will need to use external solutions with independent power supply, not directly integrated into the motherboard.
